Mason High School Theatre Present SISTER ACT, April 23–26

Mason, OH – Mason High School Theatre is proud to present the feel-good musical comedy Sister Act, based on the beloved 1992 film. When disco diva Deloris Van Cartier witnesses a murder, she is placed in protective custody in the one place the cops are sure she won’t be found: a convent! Disguised as a nun, she finds herself at odds with the rigid lifestyle and the uptight Mother Superior. But Deloris uses her unique disco moves and powerhouse voice to transform the struggling choir, breathing new life into the church and community. Filled with powerful gospel music, outrageous dancing, and a moving story of unexpected friendship, Sister Act is a tribute to the universal power of sisterhood.

Oscar Wilde’s classic comedy of manners follows two young men, Jack and Algernon, as they lead double lives to evade unwanted social obligations, including both young men taking on the name Earnest while courting the women of their affections. The problems are resolved in an extremely charming and quite unexpected way, as both Jack and Algernon discover the importance of being earnest, while answering to the name of Ernest.
